Occupation and competitiveness of the Italian armament to the center of the relation of Grimaldi to the assembly of Confitarma
The president of the Confederation has evidenced the impact of the return of protectionism on the shipping
October 24, 2016

The industry of the shipping endures "an obvious and unavoidable impact" from the return of protectionism in the world-wide commerce. It has emphasized the Shipping president of the Italian Confederation (Confitarma), Emanuele Grimaldi, in its relation to the assembly of the shipowning association that has held this morning to Rome. "Relation 2016 of the EU commission on the barriers to the commerce and the investments and on the protezionistiche tendencies - it has found Grimaldi in its participation, that we publish in the address book "Forum of the Shipping and the Logistics" - evidences that in the 31 which monitored countries, against 200 new protezionistiche measures, in last the 18 months nobody of those pre-existing of obstacle to the commerce is eliminated. The fact is important - it has emphasized - than some of these countries in the chessboards world-wide is import important and exporter and controls strong mercantile fleets. This involves an obvious and unavoidable impact on the shipping that, moreover, in this kind of total seaquake, it continues to transport 90% of the world-wide commerce".

In its relation the president of Confitarma has stopped himself in particular on the safeguard of the occupation of the marine Italians: "from always - Grimaldi has said - we work is in order to guarantee to our crews on board better conditions of job, safety of navigation and advanced welfare is for they qualified certification of competences, recognized to international level let alone for the formation of the new levers. We have demonstrated in the practical one - it has specified Grimaldi - as the boarding regulated of non-EU staff to the aims of the maintenance of the competitiveness has in fact hauled the occupation of marine Italians. It is this vision, shared with the institutions and the unions - it has evidenced - that the reform of the field of 1998 has inspired, thanks to which our fleet it has been renewed and it grown stimulating also the development of all the Italian marine cluster, as they confirm, once again, the data of V the Relationship on the Economy of the Sea, realized from the Federation of the Sea with the Censis".

Stopping itself still on the topic of the job, the president of Confitarma has then expressed the worries of the armament for the certificates, adapted to new requirement introduced from the amendments of Manila to the Stcw convention, than the administration to the marine Italians must release within year-end: "he speaks himself very - he has remembered - about the certificates of competence beyond 10.000 officials, let alone about the relative certificates to about 20.000 non-comissioned officers and municipalities". "In the majority of the marine countries - it has found Grimaldi - the process of adaptation to the international standards is begun in 2012. In Italy, instead, first I decree legislative implementing of the amendments of Manila has taken effect in June 2015. Only after such date, the competent ministries have been able to work on the other numerous implementing provisions, the last ones of which (moreover particularly important) they are published in the course of the month of August 2016, hardly four months from the effectiveness of the Convention. The armament - it has emphasized - is a lot worried, since various marine they must also exceed the training courses required and, at the same time, the Harbour offices will have absolutely to conclude, in next the two months, the adaptation of uncovered the marine certifications of the much anchor. Our worries only are not connected to the heavy administrative endorsements at the expense of the shipowner previewed from the law for the eventual one lacked certification marine the boarded ones, but above all to the difficulties that we could have to fit out many of our ships, with the founded risk to be forced to embark marine not Italian and obvious repercussions for the national occupation".

Grimaldi has spoken also from the action n.321 about the government ("Outline about decrees legislative bringing reorders of the enforced legislative dispositions in matter of fiscal, social insurance and contributive incentives in favour of the marine enterprises") that currently he is subordinate to the opinion of the Parliament, "whose effects - it has asserted - are very clear and obvious to which they know the field and that they will not be late to reveal itself, passed the transient period of 18 months from its publication. For not the professionals - it has clarified - memory shortly that such provision, still to the sieve of the Parliament, if received, for some routes exposed to the international competition will bind the fiscal, social insurance and contributive benefits in favour of the marine enterprises to the exclusive employment of communitarian Italian staff/on the ships of the International Registry". According to Grimaldi the contained modifications in the government action n.321 are not at all marginal and they do not hold account of the communitarian norms that they regulate clearly differentiating them, the traffics of continental, insulare cabotage and of short the sea shipping, imposing it obligation to embark communitarian exclusively Italian staff/on such drafts, with loss of competitiveness of the Italian flag and unavoidable transfer of the fleet you ferry under other communitarian flag. "The flagging out, though of the involved ferries of national flag from the norm - it has admonished the president of Confitarma - a loss of about 1.500 places of job in Italy would only involve". "Not there will be advantages for nobody - it has denounced - but damages for all: shipowners, marine and user, practically for the entire system Country. For our part we have mentioned these worries in all the institutional centers, let alone on he prints. On the other hand, we have perceived a deafening one Hush by the involved ministries and nothing he is eccepito with respect to the obvious storture that this I decree legislative will impose".

With respect to the total competitiveness of the Italian armament, Grimaldi has rimarcato that "in spite of the bendings recorded, the Italian mercantile fleet, with beyond 16,5 million tons, is always in the first positions: second in the European Union, third between the fleets of the greater Countries reunited in the G20 and fourth to the world". The president of Cofitarma has specified that "the competitiveness of the Italian fleet is strengthened and maintained thanks to measures that they have allowed with our shipowners to face to weapons pairs the foreign competition of navy is communitarian that extra-communitarian. Moreover, he presses me to remember - he has added - that some operating ships in markets and specific routes, also occupying only marine Italians, do not have use of some incentive and suffer from a chronic lack of norms ad hoc that of it blocks the development opportunities".
